How to move the cursor position to the end of the text in WinForms GridGroupingControl?

Move the cursor position
To set the record with cursor at end position while moving the cursor dynamically, you can use the CurrentCell.MoveTo method. After moving the CurrentCell to particular cell, you can set the cursor at end position by using CurrentCell.Renderer.
If you want to highlight the cellvalue in cell, you can use renderer.TextBox.SelectAll()method instead of using renderer.TextBox.SelectionStart.
C#
private void moveBtn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//Set your needed column index
int colIndex = this.gridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.FieldToColIndex(0);
//Getting the record rowIndex based on its position
int rowIndex = this.gridGroupingControl1.Table.Records[0].GetRowIndex();
//Moving the current cell
this.gridGroupingControl1.TableControl.CurrentCell.MoveTo(rowIndex, colIndex, Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridSetCurrentCellOptions.SetFocus);
this.gridGroupingControl1.Focus();
//Setting the cursor at end position of cell
if (this.gridGroupingControl1.TableControl.CurrentCell.Renderer is GridTextBoxCellRenderer)
{
GridTextBoxCellRenderer renderer = this.gridGroupingControl1.TableControl.CurrentCell.Renderer as GridTextBoxCellRenderer;
renderer.TextBox.SelectionStart = renderer.TextBox.Text.Length;
}
}
VB
Private Sub moveBtn_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) 'Set your needed column index Dim colIndex As Integer = Me.gridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.FieldToColIndex(0) 'Getting the record rowIndex based on its position Dim rowIndex As Integer = Me.gridGroupingControl1.Table.Records(0).GetRowIndex() 'Moving the current cell Me.gridGroupingControl1.TableControl.CurrentCell.MoveTo(rowIndex, colIndex, Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridSetCurrentCellOptions.SetFocus) Me.gridGroupingControl1.Focus() 'Setting the cursor at end position of cell If TypeOf Me.gridGroupingControl1.TableControl.CurrentCell.Renderer Is GridTextBoxCellRenderer Then Dim renderer As GridTextBoxCellRenderer = TryCast(Me.gridGroupingControl1.TableControl.CurrentCell.Renderer, GridTextBoxCellRenderer) renderer.TextBox.SelectionStart = renderer.TextBox.Text.Length End If End Sub
Note:
In the below sample, we have provided the two buttons. If you press the “Moving with cursor at end” button, the currentcell will be moved to particular cell with cursor at end position. The currentcell will be moved with highlighting the cellvalue if you press the “Moving with CellValue highlighting” button.
